PITTSBURGH, PA, Oct 08, 2015 (Marketwired via COMTEX) --
MEMS Industry Group (MIG)'s annual MEMS & Sensors Technology
Showcase at MEMS Executive Congress(R) US 2015 (November 4-6, 2015 in
Napa, CA) highlights some of the newest and most compelling
MEMS/sensors-based applications and technologies on the market. MIG
today announced the shortlist of finalists who will compete for the
title of winner at this year's event.

MonBaby Breathing and Rollover Monitor
Anxious parents can sleep
more soundly now that MonBaby(R) is on the scene. An award-winning
baby monitor that snaps like a button onto any article of a child's
clothing, MonBaby gives new parents peace of mind and helps them to
sleep better knowing that they will receive an audible alarm on their
smartphone if the baby rolls onto his or her stomach during sleep or
stops breathing.

Bosch eBike Systems
Peddling up that big hill may soon get a lot
easier with new cycling technology from the automotive and
manufacturing industry giant, Robert Bosch GmbH, which is now working
with various cycling brands to create electric pedal-assist bikes
sold at independent bicycle shops throughout North America. Bosch
eBike Systems boosts a bicyclist's human power with electric power at
speeds up to 20 mph. The core components that give Bosch eBike
Systems cyclists that "tailwind" feeling are a Bosch microprocessor
and three sensors that measure a bicyclist's torque, cadence and
wheel speed 1,000 times per second.

Voltafield Magnetic Sensor
What's the new key component for
e-compass and motion sensing in wearables? The makers of Voltafield's
ultra-low power miniature magnetic sensor are hoping that their
chip's Anisotropic Magneto-Resistive (AMR) sensor technology -- which
reduces by 10x the power consumption of a traditional Hall magnetic
sensor -- is the clear answer. Voltafield integrates 3-axis magnetic
sensors and signal conditioning circuits on monolithic silicon
together with Wafer Level Chip Scale Package (WLCSP) to form a
software programmable 1.1mm x 1.1mm device.

Horse Sense Shoes
Have you ever wished that a horse could talk?
Introducing a different breed of wearable wellness that saves horses
lives, Horse Sense Shoes has developed an equestrian wearable that is
making understanding horse health possible. Horse Sense Shoes feature
non-invasive, Freescale Semiconductor MEMS multi-sensor devices,
which are typically accelerometers and pressure sensors that can
measure weight variations and motion patterns as informational
indicators on the status and health of the horse. Residing under the
horse's hooves, these MEMS sensors can detect joint problems,
laminitis or lameness early enough for effective treatment,
potentially saving a horse's life.

Cambridge CMOS Sensors Gas Sensor
Cambridge CMOS Sensors CCS811
offers a breath of fresh air in a tiny ultra-low power device. This
metal oxide gas sensor co-packaged with a micro controller unit
delivers a self-contained solution for assessing air quality in
indoor environments. Whether embedded in a smartphone or integrated
into a standalone device, CCS811 generates alerts to provide
intuitive ways to evaluate air quality, opening up new application
areas for improved health and wellbeing such as ambient air quality
monitoring and breathe analysis in smartphones, tablets, wearables
and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

Join Us for MEMS & Sensors Technology Showcase
Sponsored by Huawei
Technologies Co. Ltd., MEMS & Sensors Technology Showcase will take
place from 10:45-11:45 a.m. on November 4, 2015. Audiences will
choose a winner, which MIG Executive Director Karen Lightman will
announce at the close of MEMS Executive Congress US 2015 on November
5.

About MEMS Executive Congress
Now in its eleventh year, MEMS
Executive Congress is an annual event that brings together business
leaders from a broad spectrum of industries: automotive,
communications, consumer goods, energy/environmental, industrial and
medical. It is a unique professional forum at which executives from
companies designing and manufacturing MEMS/sensors technology sit
side-by-side with their end-user customers in panel discussions and
networking events to exchange ideas and information about the use of
MEMS and sensors in commercial applications.
